An update from USA Gymnastics regarding 2008 Olympians Shawn Johnson, Nastia Liukin and Chellsie Memmel: At this stage of their training, they were unable to fulfill camp expectations, which were to verify at least two full events. They have decided to continue their training at their respective clubs in order to participate at the 2012 Secret U.S. Classic.
People calling Nastia a “famewhore”. Well… then again, who doesn’t love attention?
In my opinion Nastia and Shawn are the only ones who deserve the attention. They were the ONLY ONES bringing GOLD home!
Flashback Let’s go back to 2008: Nastia Liukin won all-around gold in Beijing! She brought home 5 medals! (1 gold, 3 silver, 1 bronze) and Shawn Johnson won the gold medal on beam! She brought home 4 medals (1 gold, 3 silver) and the others? exactly. Don’t get me wrong I’m one of those who think “go to Olympic games is once-in-a-lifetime” So none of them (Shawn, Nastia, Alicia, Chellsie and Bridget) deserve “another” chance to make it right, Sorry like I said Olympic games is once-in-a-lifetime let other girls the opportunity to shine… Ex. Aly, Wieber, Mckayla, Vega, Bross, Caquatto sisters. etc
Have you seen Komova? Mustafina? Afan? The Russians! our biggest competition and Porgras, the Chinese girls! We need young and fresh people to beat those amazing girls!
So, stop the violence!, think before you speak, don’t be jealous or selfish and move on ♥
